The Eu2+ ions could occupy the available cationic sites in the NSPO host, based on the ionic radii
(rM) of the cations. Due to the smaller size of Sc (rSc = 0.74 Å) and P (rP = 0.38 Å) at the six-
coordinated site, the Eu2+ ions would occupy only Na sites with permissible coordination numbers
(CN) (rNa = 1.02 Å, rEu = 1.17 Å, CN = 6; rNa = 1.12 Å, rEu = 1.20 Å, CN = 7; rNa = 1.18 Å, rEu =
1.25 Å, CN = 8)1. Therefore, Eu2+ could occupy any of these three crystallographic Na sites.

The emission intensity of NSPO:0.01Eu2+ at RT (α-phase), is too low compared to the
NSPO:xEu2+ (x = 0.03 and 0.07) phosphors (Table S7). Considering the infinitesimal amount of
defects at RT, and multiple absorption events arising from Eu2+ and defect centers, may not result
in the energy transfer and also accompanied by a non-radiative decay. In the NSPO:xEu2+ (x =
0.03 and 0.07), the direct absorption of Eu2+ competes more efficiently in absorption with the
defect, leading to higher emission in the α-phase. The NSPO:0.03Eu2+ exhibited high QE at RT
(64 %) and high-temperature (175˚C; 78 %), and superior TQ property, hence was chosen for
demonstrating the WLED properties.

up to 180˚C.
The differential thermal analysis curve of NSPO upon heating and cooling up to 250˚C are
illustrated in Fig. S1. Under heating, two exothermic reactions were observed at ~66˚C and ~164˚C,
corresponding to the structural transformation of the monoclinic α-phase to the hexagonal -phase
and to the -phase. Upon cooling, the reversible transformation from hexagonal to monoclinic
phase is evidenced by the endothermic reactions at the slightly lower temperature of ~62 ˚C and
~161˚C. These results are in accordance with the high temperature XRD results (Figs. 3a and 3b).

MAS NMR spectra of NSPO:Eu2+ in the temperature range 25 – 180˚C.
The local structure of NSPO:Eu2+, namely Na symmetry and number of non-equivalent Na
sites were investigated using 23Na solid-state magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy.
Since 23Na is a quadrupolar nucleus, the NMR spectra may provide useful information on the static
and dynamic nature (at elevated temperatures) of the material. The large quadrupole interaction of 23Na nuclei increases the difficulty in deriving information due to the broad spectrum, and becomes
complicated when the sample contains two or more non-equivalent Na sites, which are partially
reduced by high speed spinning. The 23Na (spin I = 3/2) and 31P MAS (spin I = 1/2) NMR of the
NSPO:Eu2+ from room temperature (25˚C) to 180˚C are illustrated in the Fig. S2. A single

asymmetric broad band was observed from 23Na NMR for the sample at all temperatures. The
central transition line maxima vary from ~ -20.3 (at 25˚C) to -2.8 (180˚C) ppm with the increase
in temperature, which is associated with the structural transitions from low symmetry monoclinic
(25˚C) to high symmetry hexagonal (>150˚C) with systematic peak shift. The stronger central
transition line positioned at ~ -20 ppm for monoclinic phase corresponds to the eight-coordinated
(NaO8) Na site as evidenced for the similar monoclinic NASICON structures.2 From the diffraction
results, three nonequivalent Na sites were observed for monoclinic phase (≤65˚C) and two Na sites
for hexagonal (- and -) phase (>50˚C). However, only single peak is observed, due to the line
broadening associated with the anisotropic effect. In general, the solid-state NMR signal is broader
due to the anisotropic nature in the spin-lattice and spin-spin relaxation processes.3 It is evident
that a straightforward assignment of different crystallographic sites (NaO6, NaO7 and NaO8) with 23Na NMR spectra is impossible due to the large broadening. Hence, 31P MAS NMR spectra were
measured to understand the nature of Na sites in the close proximity of 31P nuclei in the NSPO:Eu2+.
The 31P MAS NMR spectra of the NSPO:Eu2+ in the temperature range of 25 – 180˚C (Fig.
S2c) show a single component ~ 12.0 (±0.6) ppm which corresponds to the PO4 tetrahedra. In the
NSPO structure, each PO4 tetrahedron shares oxygen with four polyhedra, three with the Sc2(PO4)3
and one with the adjacent Na units. The position of 31P MAS NMR peak depends on the polarizing
strength of cations that share oxygen with PO4 tetrahedra.4 The peak move towards less negative
chemical shift with the structural transformation and the number of neighboring Na sites in the
monoclinic (three Na) and hexagonal (two Na) phases.
The non-equivalent crystallographic Na sites decrease from three (six-, seven-, and eight-
coordination) to two (six- and eight-coordination) during polymorphic modification from
monoclinic to hexagonal phase with increasing temperature.

Fig S5. Temperature-dependent emission spectra of NSPO:xEu2+ (x = 0.01, 0.03, and 0.07) under
370 nm excitation, upon heating from room temperature to 250˚C and subsequent cooling to room
temperature with a temperature interval of 50˚C.
1) The emission spectra of NSPO:xEu2+ (x = 0.01, 0.03, and 0.07) in all the three composition
during cooling (from 250C) showed that the phosphor possess a closely similar emission
intensities to that of the emission during heating at the corresponding temperature (Fig. S5).
This indicates the presence of contributing trapped energy even during cooling process from
250C, and sustains until room temperature. This result substantiates that the contributing traps
influencing an increase in emission intensity (x = 0.01 and 0.03) or zero TQ (x = 0.07) property
of phosphor during heating, shows its existence even under decreasing temperature till room
temperature. This demonstrates that the contributing traps persists in a wide temperature
window of 25 – 250C under both heating as well as cooling process. The above result
reaffirms that the contributing traps are not short-lived and are very stable, which could be
utilized as the zero TQ phosphor in a wide temperature range of 25 – 250˚C and would certainly
be of practical use.
2) The source of these contributing traps in the NSPO:Eu2+ phosphor basically arises from the
generation of highly conducting Na+ ions with increasing temperature and its associated phase

transformation to ionic conducting β- and γ-phases at 65˚C and 165˚C, respectively. The
formation and filling of contributing traps are driven by the reversible phase transformation
from conducting α-phase to highly ionic conducting β- and γ-phase in the temperature range
of 25 - 250˚C upon heating and cooling and are temperature-dependent. Therefore, whenever
the temperature of the sample rises, the formation of defects are initiated through the thermal
activation (supply of heat) leading to an assistance in the increase in emission intensity or zero
TQ property.
3) The beauty of the NSPO:Eu2+ phosphor is that the contributing traps favoring zero TQ property,
is highly reversibly formed during heating and cooling process with the reversible formation
of high conducting phases (β- and γ-phase) at high temperature to conducting phase (α-phase)
at room temperature. The efficiency of phosphor with increasing temperature is determined by
the ratio of radiative to non-radiative transitions.
4) In addition, the magnitude of two-fold emission of NSPO:0.01Eu2+ at 175ºC is also determined
by the amount of electron-hole pairs generated during UV excitation. In the low activator
sample (NSPO:0.01Eu2+), under UV excitation the large number of defect centers that were
formed due to the high content of trap forming Na+ ions (Eu2+ substitutes Na+ in the NSPO
host), serve as trapping centers, leading to a large formation of electron-hole pairs.

Fig S6. The emission spectra and relative PL intensity of NSPO:0.03Eu2+ phosphor with respect
to time, monitored under 370 nm excitation continuously for 90 min at (a, d) 100˚C, (b, e) 150˚C,
and (c, f) 200˚C, for 30 min at each temperature with a time interval of 5 min.
The lifetime of the contributing traps at elevated temperature were investigated, from the
emission spectra of phosphors measured continuously over 90 min by holding the sample
temperature at 100˚C, 150˚C, and 200˚C for 30 min at each temperature, with a time interval of 5
min (Fig. S6). The lifetime of contributing traps which assist in the emission of phosphor with
increasing temperature, can be identified by maintaining the phosphor at a specific temperature
and monitoring the emission profile of phosphor as a function of time.
1) The emission profile of phosphor maintained at 100˚C, 150˚C, and 200˚C continuously for 30
min at each temperature showed that the emission intensity and emission area are very stable
and remain unchanged over 90 min, as well as without changing the emission wavelength.
2) This observation further confirms that the contributing traps that assist in the emission with
increasing temperature are very stable and these traps are not emptied, rather they exist during
continuous operation and contribute to the emission of the phosphor.
3) Moreover, the contributing traps are very active at temperature above room temperature
especially above 65˚C, which confirms that these traps are active in the complete temperature
range of 25 – 200˚C. The contributing traps that assist in the emission has high stability and
longer lifetime during the operation in the fabricated device. These results further substantiates

that the contributing traps causing zero TQ property of phosphors are long-lived and would
surely be of practical use in the high-power white LED lighting.
4) The long-term stability of the defects displays a strong note for its suitability as a sustainable
blue component for the high-power white LED lighting.

Fig S7. Decay time measurement of NSPO:xEu2+ (a) x = 0.01, (b) 0.03, and (c) 0.07, monitored at
355 nm excitation and 453 nm emission in the temperature range of 25 – 200ºC. The inset graph
clearly depicts the difference in decay curves.
The lifetime of the NSPO:xEu2+ (x = 0.01, 0.03, and 0.07) phosphors monitored at 453 nm were
measured as a function of temperature and presented in the Fig. S7. With an increase in the Eu2+
concentration, the decay time of NSPO:xEu2+ decreases in the order (x) 0.01 < 0.03 < 0.07 at room
temperature, which are in agreement with the reported literature.5,6,7 The decrease in the decay
time with increasing Eu2+ could be attributed to the increase in energy migration between
neighboring Eu2+ ions at higher Eu2+ concentration in the NSPO:xEu2+ phosphor.7 Moreover,
generally phosphors exhibit a decrease in the decay time with increasing temperature when TQ
occurs. In the NSPO:Eu2+, an increase in the decay time was observed which confirms the zero
TQ property of NSPO:Eu2+ phosphor. The TL result (Fig. 3e) also confirms the trend in the
concentration of defects among these three polymorphs. At RT, energy transfer process is
negligible due to an infinitesimal amount of traps in the α-phase.

Fig S8. Density of states of the NSPO:Eu2+ phosphor in (a) monoclinic (α-phase) and (b)
hexagonal (β- and γ-phase) phases from DFT calculations.
The structural information of NSPO:Eu2+ phosphor could be correlated to the optical properties by
calculating the density of states through DFT calculations (Fig. S8). The structure of monoclinic
(α-phase) and hexagonal (β- and γ-phase) phases shows an interesting result of identical electronic
band structure, which substantiates the similar Eu2+ emission profile (453 nm) in both the
polymorphs. The band gap of monoclinic and hexagonal phases was estimated to be 4.65 eV and
4.54 eV, respectively. Moreover, Eu2+ was identified to occupy the most favorable eight-
coordinated NaO8 site in both the monoclinic and hexagonal phases which had identical electronic
d-band structure. This further corroborates the explanation for an unaltered emission position of
NSPO:Eu2+ in both monoclinic and hexagonal phases.

Fig S10. The excitation spectrum of commercial yellow-emitting La3Si6N11:Ce3+ and red-emitting
(Sr,Ca)AlSiN3:Eu2+ phosphors monitored at λem = 533 and 630 nm, respectively, overlapped with
the emission spectrum of NSPO:0.03Eu2+ phosphor under 370 nm excitation.
1) There is a significant absorption of the blue component (420 – 490 nm) of NSPO:Eu2+
phosphor by the yellow-emitting LSN:Ce3+ phosphor, which would reduce the blue emission
intensity of NSPO:Eu2+ from the EL spectra of WLED (Fig. S10).
2) A similar blue absorption of NSPO:Eu2+ by the red-emitting SCASN:Eu2+ phosphor had
resulted in the decrease of blue component during white-LED fabrication. Hence, the
decrement in the NSPO:Eu2+ emission may be attributed to the reabsorption process of the
other additive phosphor components and not the worse thermal quenching property. Therefore,
NSPO:Eu2+ is anticipated to show the zero thermal quenching property with the increase in
applied current in the EL spectra.
3) Moreover, this significant absorption of NSPO:Eu2+ emission by other phosphor component
namely green-emitting (LSN:Ce3+) and red-emitting (SCASN:Eu2+) phosphors can be an
advantage for the NSPO:Eu2+ based WLED fabrication due to the fact that the blue component
of NSPO:Eu2+ could overcompensate the drop in the efficiency of other phosphor components
at higher temperature. This added advantage would significantly improve the optical properties
of WLED with high color purity, color stability, and CRI for high-power LED lighting.
